When packaging the perf userland application into an AppImage, the
wait() call in perf stat returned too early. It turned out that some
other child process exited, but not the one perf stat launched:

This patch uses waitpid instead to ensure the call waits for the
debuggee application launched by 'perf stat'. This fixes 'perf stat'
when launched from an AppImage:
$ ./perf-x86_64.AppImage stat sleep 1

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
